Image construction methods for phased array magnetic resonance imaging.
PURPOSE To study image construction in phased array magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems from a statistical signal processing point of view. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three new approaches for image combination with multiple coils are proposed: 1) one based on the singular value decomposition of the measurement matrix, which is asymptotically optimal in the signal-to-noise ratio sense; 2) one ...
متن کاملNumerical Evaluation of an 8-element Phased Array Torso Coil for Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Recently, parallel imaging using multiple RF coils has excited great interest in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). To help the design of some novel flexible array coils for the human torso, we theoretically investigate the RF field of an 8-element array coil loaded with an anatomically accurate model of the human torso. The RF behaviour is predicted based on a hybrid FDTD/MoM approach. The prim...
متن کاملAutomatic Deactivation in Phased Array Probe for Human Prostate Magnetic Resonance Imaging at 1.5T
A four element prototype phased array surface probe has been designed and constructed to improve clinical human prostate spectroscopic data. The probe consists of two pairs of adjacent rectangular coils with an optimum overlap to reduce the mutual inductance. The two pairs are positioned on the anterior and the posterior pelvic region and two couples of varactors at the input of each coil under...
متن کاملSNR-optimality of sum-of-squares reconstruction for phased-array magnetic resonance imaging.
We consider the commonly used "Sum-of-Squares" (SoS) reconstruction method for phased-array magnetic resonance imaging with unknown coil sensitivities. We show that the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in the image produced by SoS is asymptotically (as the input SNR--> infinity ) equal to that of maximum-ratio combining, which is the best unbiased reconstruction method when the coil sensitivities ar...
